ALL THE BEST BRO

All the best to you and other spm candidate.
Good luck and god bless

i guess i will leave the exam room after 2 hours.

It's still ok LOL
I obtain 30 before
But after gt such an awesome surprise,
I keep stalkibg my bm teachee since june,
Now from 30~85 but drop to 73 :c
So afraid I'll fail my bm as I always never do paper 2 beside the rumusan and the novel (max5/15 for that lol)

I reckon it's the 3rd one, when I segregate the 'line' word from 'on', all I can find is the base definition of 'on' itself. But when I combine both of them into one as a whole, like the third option, I found the meaning of 'online' itself. I'm using a really god-knows-how old the thesaurus is, it's kinda old, but it's trusty.

I was lepaking in LYN since before UPSR..

Prepared? I really dont think so..

Was reading back Step by Wicked Step (havent read fully), had fallen asleep while reading Claudia's story till my parents came back home and woke me up. I think I am just gonna sleep now and continue revising at the national library tomorrow. Anyone wanna meet there?

Edit: nevermind. Library is closed tomorrow

They don't just thoroughly scrutinize your words/sentence one by one, they check your essay as a whole and give your marks based on certain criteria and impression. When it comes to quotes or peribahasa, few if not most of my classmates who got it wrong on how the markers check them. They reckon that with just mere 1 peribahasa in any statement, they'll garner marks based on the statement. I recall that a friend of mine once told me that I should insert some bombastic and flowery proverbs into that single sentence in my closing statement, with the intention of hyping that sole sentence. Honestly, a single sentences filled with bombastic words or peribahasa won't make it stand out of your whole essay. The essay is marked as a whole unit and by impression, not by breaking them down into bits by bits and inspect them.

But the same cannot be said for kesalahan tatabahasa/ejaan though. Just to let you know, in case you've wrongly spell a word, suppose that it's 'kebanyakan', but you've written 'kebanyakkan'(which is wrong) then the marker will deduct your marks for ejaan by 1. But if you've repeated the err twice, the marker can't deduct your marks anymore. The same goes for tatabahasa, you'll lose probably 1 mark if you write 'di dalam hal ini', which was supposed to be only 'dalam hal ini'. In other words, you might wanna watch out for your grammatical/tatabahasa errs more than concerning of putting in ayat-ayat gramatis/quotes. But, not too long ago, I reprimanded myself regarding this issue as I'd realized that the utilization of quotes/proverbs is indeed vital in forming a solid foundation for your elaboration as well as your isi, wholly. I reckon that it is only with the combined efforts of your firm elaboration, together with your powerful quotes/proverbs, as well as least grammatical errs that keeps your essay superb.

I think we should focus more on the kesan, since the statement itself is mentioning that there are tons of kesan negatif. If my insight doesn't deceive me, we already knew from the statement itself that 'ketidakstabilan politik' is the key to this question, so it's the punca/sebab/faktor. Concurrently, I found out that it explicitly mentioned 'masyarakat dunia', ergo it should be a dimensi antarabangsa. Without a doubt, the question wants us to write concerning the kesan/akibat negatif concerning the issue. Correct me if I'm wrong.

For the Novel part, I'm still confused @_@ What if they ask for 2 nilai that we have learned from 2 novels we have read? Does that mean they want 2 nilai and each novel must give example for the 2 nilai or we write 1 novel 1 nilai?

Oh and just for some additional info, for my trial the kesalahaan ejaan that came out for one of the question was for murtabak. Apparently it's martabak now. Didn't expect that at all hahaha.

And also remember the difference between mencolok mata and menjolok mata. My friends kept getting it confused during our exams so just wanted to remind you guys. (I remember it came out for our year's UPSR haha! )

There's a quote I just found too that seems pretty easy to remember and easy to fit into essays.

William J. Siegel - Manusia tidak merancang untuk gagal tetapi mereka gagal merancang.

I think we should write 2 nilai for each novel, though I've no idea whether it's correct or not. I've only did some questions that required students to give out 1 nilai from both of the novels and further elaborate on the exact same nilai, with different characters and different example, of course.

That's one of the reasons on why I dislike BM a lot. Seriously, those words like martabak/murtabak are killing me. Just to let you know that nearly 5 months ago, I'd only realised that the 'curly' word for BM isn't kerinting, but instead it's keriting

Anyway, thanks for reminding us regarding these kesalahan tatabahasa/ejaan thing. They might look like petty mistakes that one can't easily distinguish, but they'll do us lots of pain and put us into agonies if they will be out in the exam.

Ya, you're right. When you are told to "bincang" a sentence, talk about the main point of the sentence: it brings negative impacts.

You'll have to interpret the questions in certain cases. After all, this is a language test, and it assesses your understanding ability. For certain sentences, the question might be more subtle. For example

"Pembangunan modal insan merupakan inti pati penting dalam pembangunan negara di peringkat global. Oleh itu, penambahbaikan sistem pendidikan merupakan salah satu langkah yang dijalankan oleh pihak kerajaan untuk merealisasikan matlamat tersebut. Bincangkan"

For the question above, there are actually two things you should discuss. Since it says "bincangkan", you need to analyse the questions and make elaboration on the statements. First, you should talk about why pembangunan modal insan is penting (first sentence), and then you talk about the langkah. (second sentence)

But this is STPM level, so don't get all nervous about it. This type of question normally presents itself in one sentence for SPM, just thought an extra info might come in handy. If this type of question comes out, avoid it if you're not sure what the questions actually want.

Bro, paper 2 where got karangan wan.

like /k/ say...LIPOT!!!


BTW any heads up on what may come out for the novel part on Thursday for English? I can't remember all the story in detail

Wow, my class all forcefully force frasa menarik into the karangan, and the end results, 3-5 per paragraph, haha

SPM will have tons of space, it's like they don't even care for the trees.

What about the lisan marks?

I'm guessing it's harder version of KBKK questions? There most likely won't be too many HOTS questions or A+ will be 75

If only I could feed on the panic in this thread, I would become Goku (POWAH　ＬＥＶＡ　OVAH　９０００）
　
Come on guys, let's just chill, treat this like a normal exam and we'll be fine. Worrying too much will probably cause lack of sleep or panic meltdowns

every exam I also chill ,probably because my class mates all chilling type , but still got study lah. Ya make sure to sleep early today, no later than 10PM if not tomorrow will be sleepy when doing the exams.

you know how there's always one sentence that is like a pembayang before the actual kehendak soalan for karangan? Do we have to take that into account?

For example: "Dewasa ini, kita sering digemparkan dengan berita-berita kanak-kanak diculik di tempat awam.

Bincangkan peranan ibu bapa dalam menjamin keselamatan anak."

When I write my karangan, can I write keselamatan anak like "keselamatan anak di rumah" or must I talk about keselamatan di tempat awam alone?

The actual question part doesn't specify, but the sentence before it does.

Brushing up on KOMSAS, Novel and some peribahasas. Reading through some karangan points also, in case can goreng into exam.

No breakfast... LET THE HUNGER GAMES... BEGIN!
